I was visiting family in the area and needed a place to work for a couple of hours. The coffee is excellent and I love the location in the repurposed factory. I ended up buying another drink and a bag of coffee to take back home. They were two of the best lattes I've ever had, and I am a bit of a coffee snob. Can't wait to come back the next time I am in the Zoo!

Delicious espresso. I don't live in Kalamazoo, but they seemed to be known as the place to be from a quality coffee standpoint. Wasn't disappointed! Really unique location and interior with diverse seating options for whatever your there to do (work, read a book, hang out with others, etc.). Awesome location on a relaxing red brick street.

The Frank St location is my fav. Great spaces to collaborate with friends. Good tunes, service and brew.

I was staying at the Raddison and wanted coffee that wasn't Starbucks. Factory Coffee is about a 15 min walk (although if you're wary of homeless and train trucks, it might be better to drive there). Coffee was delicious, and they had bagels and vegan muffins (blueberry and banana nut chocolate chip). Will definitely go back when in the area again.

I will be the first to admit, I am a coffee snob. Stopped in today for a almond milk latte. Hands down, the BEST one I've ever had. Adorable and safe feeling atmosphere.

Went with my coworker Shon and got a hot chocolate. I love the vibe! It's such a cool looking place! I also found out the owner is a big moped fan!

My first experience with Factory Coffee was at the Delta by Marriot in Kalamazoo. For 4 mornings I indulged in the fabulous aroma coming from this coffee shop. The coffee is phenomenal and the service, even better! It was a surprising treat each morning. It exceeded my expectations

Such an awesome place. Located in an old historic building in downtown Kalamazoo. Hundred year old hardwood floors creak with history as you walk around. The coffee is top notch. Staff is very friendly. Exposed brick walls add to the charm. They have antique mopeds to look at too. Grayling ceramic studio in the basement produces beautiful items. This is the local business I seek out and support. Stop in for a cup of joe and do the same.
